Real Affinity plc ("Real Affinity" or "Group"), the AIM-listed
marketing services group, announces that it has agreed an extension
of (Advertisement)

its current partnership with retail giant WH Smith plc to manage
their travel service requirements. The contract is worth in excess
of 850,000 over the next three years.

It will see Swindon-based Real Affinity Events, the event management
arm of the Group become the sole supplier of travel, accommodation,
meeting and conference services to WH Smith for the next three years.

WH Smith has taken the strategic decision to contract one agency to
deliver all of its conferencing, meeting, travel and accommodation
requirements for 3 years following a thorough analysis of its entire
supply chain. Key to the award of this contract was the ability to
deliver to exacting quality and performance targets. WH Smith has
640 high street and travel stores at airports, train stations and
motorway service area locations.


Anita Lowe, Chief Executive of Real Affinity Events commented:

commercial relationship with WH Smith. It proves once again the
faith our clients have in us and demonstrates what can be achieved
when you deliver consistently on both performance targets and
quality.

tailored solutions to major blue-chip customers and illustrates the
stronger service offering that the Group is now able to provide."
